ESWIN

NAME

Eswin -- SFS/Windows general display program

SYNOPSIS

Eswin (-I) (-i item) (-a type) (-g item) (-n item) (-G[SWN]) (-f item lo hi) (-l labeltype) (-s start-time) (-e end-time) file

DESCRIPTION

Eswin is a program to display portions of multiple data sets from a single file. The display can be zoomed and scrolled. Speech items, Lx items and synthesizer control data can be replayed. Options allow for the selection of items and the initial display of part of the timescale. Default operation is to display all items in file over the duration of the longest. Eswin may also be used to add/edit annotations using the '-l' option.

OPTIONS

-I Identify program and exit.

-i item Select first item matching item specification.

-a type Select all items matching item specification.

-g spitem Select a speech item for display as a spectrogram using on-line FFT.

-G opt Control of spectrogram display. Argument is made from these letters: 'S' = display speech signal, 'W' = display wideband, 'N' = display narrowband. This applies to all speech items displayed.

-s start Specify a start time (in seconds) other than 0.0.

-e end Specify an end time (in seconds) other than the length of the first speech item in the file. If no speech item found, default timescale is 1 second.

-f "item lo hi" Fix all displays of a given type to the y-range lo..hi.

-l labelname Select labelling mode: an annotation editing facility. The annotations to be edited must be given a name (labelname) that is stored in the history for the annotation data set. If any existing annotation items in the file have the same name (i.e. with "type=<name>" in the history field), the last is used as the initial contents of the annotation data set.

To delete an existing annotation, position the cursor on top of it, and press [DELETE].

B (annotation mode only). Add an annotation at the right cursor.
